cheazles Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Woohoo! Finally got it to look as good as russell's screenshots. Very happy :p It's been reported over at Miranda that if you have "Hot track items as mouse passes over" enabled this will crash Miranda. See if you have any luck with the skin once the option is disabled.

gaabrysz Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 what is "Hot track items as mouse passes over" and how to disable it?? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/299261-miranda-customization-topic/page/34/#findComment-586661221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheazles Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 what is "Hot track items as mouse passes over" and how to disable it?? 586661221[/snapback] It basically means that as your mouse passes over a contact on your list, that contact will be highlighted in blue or whatever colour. You can disable it by going to Options->Contact List->List . Make sure that option is not checked. And hit ok/apply. Reload ModernClear and then restart Miranda. Or restart Miranda then load ModernClear.

Have you enabled avatar options for your protocols as well? I know that for Yahoo it has to be selected (Network->Yahoo->Show Avatars) and I *think* MSN Messenger 7 protocol needs to be enabled for MSN Avatars to show (Network->MSN Network). I could be wrong though as I recall reading that you only need to enable MSN Messenger 7 if you want your contacts status messages.

I know this is the most obvious one but sometimes the most obvious one is missed. Other than that...II'm not too sure. i have a problem with groups. that is why i asked how did you do it cheazles :) (#1 in the picture) and how to remove those icons (protocol icons) #2 in the picture 586661485[/snapback] Problem 2 - Options->Contact List->Status Bar then deselect show Status Bar. Problem 1 - Involved me messing around in Contact List->Rows to get it that way. I disabled variable row height and mucked around with Min Row Height Values. Sometimes you have to enable variable row height, change a value in min row height, then disable variable row height for it to change. Stupid I know. I've also selected Ignore Size for row calc heights for Avatar, Icon and Text which helped make my clist look the way it does.

I have Client selected only. Also have a look at Contact List->Row Items for Avatar and Icon as they have an effect on how your contact list looks overall. You can check out my chat window here. The contact list has obviously been updated but that's what I'm still using for the chat stuff at the moment.
